In some portuguese language literature books, the mdash is often
used to indicate changes between characters in a dialogue.
for example:
John and Mary were talking about their vacation.
-- I had a great time in venice.
-- Did you see many historical places?
-- No, I had spent most of time from one restaurant to another.
I would like to know what should be the proper way to markup
dialogues like this, using accessible HTML, without changing the
original text. Does using the entity &mdash; alone suggests it
is a dialogue?
I would appreciate your thoughts or comments.
best regards,
